Palolem beach is voted one of the best beaches in
the world ,its a crescent cove in the far south of GOA surrounded with
palm trees along the coastline. the water is clear, shallow & safe to
swim.
there's nothing to do here but soak up the rays ,and go for long walks
in the shallows.
the local people are very friendly, and hospitable off course very
helpful too. the local drink there is coconut feni. this is made from
toddy extracted from the coconut shoot. the local food there is fish
curry/rice. early mornings the fisherman go out with their boats into
the sea and come back with their nets full of fish.
there's a monkey island just off the coast. at low tide you can walk
to get there.
apart from the beach , there's a beautiful lonely isolated beach. they
call it "paradise on earth" .this beach is commonly known as " the
butterfly beach". to get there you can only got by boat . it takes
about 20 minutes from palolem beach .while on the way you can see a lot
of dolphins playing in the water. if you prefer to go in the mornings
its the best .
palolem boasts of a warm and hospitable local population.
there are many European nationals who stay there for long term as
well. |
